Dive Architects

In 2001, Ia Hjärre and Andy Nettleton started Dive Architects in London. Based on a belief that creative, high quality architecture is the result of a close dialogue with our clients. Projects can be long. Demanding. It’s why from initial design to final result, we infuse each stage of the project lifecycle with a passion for collaborative design that delivers.
Today we drive that philosophy through the team of professionals we work with both here in Stockholm and internationally. Through projects large and small in a range from commercial to private.http://www.divearchitects.com/

The Dalarna house was specifically situated along a north to south axis so that the homeowners can have the morning sun at breakfast and, as the day goes on, enjoy the sunset from the master bedroom. The construction uses timber framing built on a concrete floor slab and is clad in pine treated with a traditional timber preservative.
